I'd hope a "faceless" character like V in Cyberpunk that you can customize to your liking. I always struggle with RPGs that have predefined characters, because they often kinda go against what in my mind would be a possible personification in that world, and that potential clash makes me struggle with immersing myself in it.
I don't care for gamepads, but I agree on the dated part. Original TQ feels very sluggish, slow paced and limited in its movement nowadays. Kinda why I also couldn't get into the newer addons since their return. I wonder if TQ2 even addresses this in a meaningful way. The build variety I hope will be about as good, if not better, than what TQ had to offer - which was definitely one of its strong suits. I'm glad they're back though, and that they have the rights to their title back as well. TQ and probably Hellgate were probably the hack'n slay games I played most aside from the Diablo franchise, which now can go fuck itself.
I do like the graphics though. Gives a painted feel without looking cartoonish.
Because this whole woke bullshit is a recent gamergate thing of the past decade or so, especially after US politics became even nuttier and "conservatives" completely started to lose their plot.
And please. Just go into the Steam forums of a game that has for example a poc woman as main character, or uses body type A & B instead of "male" & "female". There's literally countless of examples of people completely losing their shit over games, movies and shows over the recent years. Hell, even in this very comment section here we see people who think they as a white man are apparently underrepresented nowadays.
but when it comes to games I'm homophobic for not wanting to participate.
No, you're a bigot for publicly crying about it on end instead of just not buying it. No one would give a shit about you for you not buying a game. It's when you go to the forums and start crying woke.
The elusive Nazi on Lemmy. How funny.
I can't fathom how fragile your self identity as "white man" must be, if the inclusion of non white people and women in video games is somehow this upsetting to you. I bet you're one of those people who cry about wokeism on the Steam forums.
